Therefore when we display an image loaded in opencv using matplotlib functions we may want to convert it into rgb mode.
Opencv imshow matplotlib.
Loading an image with opencv and displaying it with matplotlib.
The origin will coincide with the center of pixel 0 0.
Matplotlib pyplot imshow x cmap none norm none aspect none interpolation none alpha none vmin none vmax none origin none extent none shape filternorm 1 filterrad 4 0 imlim resample none url none data none kwargs.
There is a difference in pixel ordering in opencv and matplotlib.
The imshow function in pyplot module of matplotlib library is used to display data as an image.
Using cv imshow the result we get is a two dimensional array of size 180x256.
But the results aren t as expected.
Additionally the antigrain image resize filter is controlled by the parameter filternorm.
So we can show them as we do normally using cv imshow function.
How to display a matplotlib rgb image using opencv in python this post will be helpful in learning opencv using python programming.
There are two common representations for rgb images with an alpha channel.
Method 1.
The input may either be actual rgb a data or.
Here i will show how to implement opencv functions and apply them in various aspects using some great examples.
See interpolations for imshow matshow for an overview of the supported interpolation methods.
Matplotlib pyplot imshow matplotlib pyplot imshow x cmap none norm none aspect none interpolation none alpha none vmin none vmax none origin none extent none filternorm true filterrad 4 0 resample none url none data none kwargs source display data as an image i e on a 2d regular raster.
Method 2.
On a 2d regular raster.
Import cv2 image cv2 imread chelsea the cat png plt axis off plt imshow image plt show again the code is simple.
Some interpolation methods require an additional radius parameter which can be set by filterrad.
It will be a grayscale image and it won t give much idea what colors are there unless you know the hue values of different colors.
